Eid in the Square — Muslim Festival in Trafalgar Square

Trafalgar Square will once again be hosting the annual Eid Festival to mark the end of Ramadan, the holy month of fasting where Muslims take some time to remember those less fortunate than them.

Main stage with live entertainment

A large stage will be erected at the base of Nelson's Column with an exciting line-up of live performers.

Organised by the Eid Community Advisory Group and grass roots Muslim organisations, you'll see a mix of traditional and contemporary acts from the worlds of TV, radio, comedy and music, with spoken word, prayers and stories.

They'll also be handing out the 'Inspiring Muslim Awards' to celebrate some of the unsung heroes of London's Muslim community.

Market stalls and creative workshops

You'll also find lots of market stalls showcasing Islamic arts and fashions, creative workshops and calligraphy demonstrations, and even a few family-friendly activities like storytelling, face painting and henna tattoos.

There will also be plenty of food stalls selling tasty treats from across the Islamic world.
